The '''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Backlog elimination drives/March 2014|March 2014 backlog elimination drive]]''' is a month-long effort to reduce the backlog of articles in need of copyediting. The drive begins on March 1 at 00:00 (UTC) and ends on March 31 at 23:59 (UTC). Our goals are to copyedit all articles tagged in December 2012 and January 2013 and to complete all [[WP:GOCE/REQ|requests]] placed in January 2014. Barnstars will be awarded to anyone who copyedits at least one article, and special awards will be given to the top five in the following categories: number of articles, number of words, number of articles over 5,000 words, number of articles tagged in December 2012 and January 2013 and the longest article. We hope to see you there! |

Welcome!![]() ![]()
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome! Guy0307 (talk) 11:05, 15 April 2009 (UTC) Copyedit requestHello, I found your name at the Guild of Copy Editors, and I was wondering if you would mind copyediting Ice hockey at the Olympic Games. It is a rather long article, and I would completely understand if you did not have enough time/patience to copyedit it, but if you do have time, I would appreciate it. Thanks, Scorpion0422 18:55, 4 May 2009 (UTC) → I'm afraid I'm too busy this month and won't be online much. I might have a look in a few weeks when I have time. Hope you get it done soon, good luck with it. --Whoosit (talk) 13:39, 8 May 2009 (UTC) Copyedit requestHello. I'm working on the FAC Ralph Bakshi, and some reviewers have suggested that the prose needs work. Do you have time to take a look at the article? Thanks in advance! (Ibaranoff24 (talk) 17:45, 15 May 2009 (UTC)) →Afraid I'm still too pressed for time, but I've posted your request here, so someone should see to it shortly! --Whoosit (talk) 22:34, 11 June 2009 (UTC) OverlinkingThe recent edits you made to Gold mining are helpful. However I notice it is slightly overlinked in that it links to terms which are not directly associated with the topic, such as bulldozer, diesel, gravel, etc. Please read the linking guideline. Thanks, —EncMstr (talk) 18:46, 7 August 2009 (UTC) →Noted. Thanks for the tip. --Whoosit (talk) 06:33, 8 August 2009 (UTC) BarnstarThanks! :-) I moved the barnstar to the "Awards" section on my main userpage, in case you look and wonder what happened to it. --RL0919 (talk) 20:26, 22 September 2009 (UTC) Use the "new section" buttonIt works wonders =) You seem to have inadvertantly over-wroten a section on Graeme's talk page with this edit. It is easiest to use the "new section" button rather than editing the final section and tacking it on (or mistakenly over-writing it!). –xenotalk 22:56, 24 September 2009 (UTC) →Hmmm. Thanks. Didn't know what that button did... --Whoosit (talk) 00:31, 25 September 2009 (UTC) Hello there. Thank you very much for your copy edits on Aboriginal peoples in Canada, they helped enormously and were much appreciated.SriMesh | talk 17:17, 7 October 2009 (UTC) Curtis Loftis pageThe only reason we are honestly trying to keep the page up is because it was created by someone else, and now if people google his name, we dont want them to see a wikipedia link, and then have it deleted and have them think the worst, as he is trying to get donators for his charity. That is all. --ForrrestMaster (talk) 13:58, 14 October 2009 (UTC)
G.W. Carver Middle School (Miami, Florida)Please revisit G.W. Carver Middle School (Miami, Florida) and see if you'd like to change your delete position in its AfD based on recent edits. TJRC (talk) 20:59, 19 October 2009 (UTC) So where's the OR in the RfC material ?In your recent anti-Logicus RfC comments which alleged the material in question is OR, unfortunately you never identified which of its claims are OR in your view. I would be most grateful if you would now do this so that I may consider how any such breaches of NOR policy, if any, may be remedied by some revision(s) should any of your criticisms be objectively valid. If you can oblige me, I would be most grateful if you would start with the material in the smaller section entitled 'Impetus in the celestial spheres', at least since I imagine it would be less problematical for you on your particular understanding of medieval dynamics, as well as being smaller. So in the first instance, do you claim that particular material is OR anywhere? And in case you ever thought Wilson's objections were valid, I would also be grateful to know whether you think they have now been overcome by my proposed revisions of the only four sentences he seemed to claim are OR because he claims they are OS. Thanks in anticipation ! --Logicus (talk) 16:19, 14 December 2009 (UTC)

Participating editors will receive barnstars and other awards, according to their level of participation. ɳorɑfʈ Talk! 00:18, 22 April 2010 (UTC) Grab some glory, and a barnstarHi, I'd like to invite you to participate in the Guild of Copy Editors July 2010 Backlog Elimination Drive. In May, about 30 editors helped remove the {{copyedit}} tag from 1175 articles. The backlog is still over 7500 articles, and extends back to the beginning of 2008! We really need your help to reduce it. Copyediting just a couple articles can qualify you for a barnstar. Serious copyeditors can win prestigious and exclusive rewards. See the event page for more information. And thanks for your consideration. ɳorɑfʈ Talk! 15:40, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
